Holiday houses in Malhada Sorda

We enjoyed our visit with our family over New Year for three nights. Luis was a very helpful host and always responded quickly to any questions. We appreciated the freshly baked cake on arrival and on the second morning some treats from the bakery. We particularly enjoyed seeing the fireworks from the exclusive resort of the opposite side of the river for New Year. We popped open a bottle of bubbles to share on the rooftop terrace with a fabulous view at midnight. Great atmosphere. Would be fun to return during the summer months to enjoy the lovely pool.

Where to begin. We chose Jesse’s place to begin our family trip to Portugal and it set the tone in all the right ways. From the recommendations to take a tour with Nuno & Grapeland to dinner cooked by the neighbors, we didn’t want to leave. Jesse & his neighbors even helped us out of a ‘rite of passage’ moment when we got our car a bit stuck on a vineyard road during the nationwide power outage. We truly hope to return one day and the memories of this trip will last us a lifetime. The photos will never do the place justice as it consistently took our breath away.

Gorgeous cottage and location is amazing. Douro Valley is one of the most special places in the world. History, wine and Port wine. We brought food and did our own thing. Location is good 30 min + to special places.

The villa is incredible! Numerous rooms with storage and plenty of space. Numerous bathrooms. Very spacious living and dining room. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need (coffee machine, utensils, toaster etc.) The game room is a huge plus for rainy days. The pool is cold, but perfect for cooling off, and once in it is very nice. We had a great vacation in this amazing house! There are beautiful river beaches nearby, beautiful views as well. You have to love calm and nature because there are no big cities within an hour (the closest is Coimbra) but supermarkets 5 min away for groceries ;) The house is 1.5 hours from Porto and 2.5 hours from Lisbon, ideal for a day trip :) Thanks to Karen and her spouse for hosting us :) You can book without so much as a second thought!

Friend's stay after sherry award Maria has been very communicative, responding quickly to our requests. The apartment is idyllic, very clean and comfortable. Unique failure to have no elevator, understandable since it is in the historic center of Plasencia. We'll definitely repeat it!

Mrs. Emilia and her daughter were very attentive to us throughout the stay. We had an unforeseen event with the access portalon to the property because we did not remember how it was closed and at the moment it showed up at the house to explain it to us again. They were very nice both upon arrival and departure. The house, impeccable. It had everything you need. 100% Recommended Accommodation.

Our family of 5 loved our stay in the Chalet. It is in such beautiful surroundings overlooking a waterfall & in a great location for many walks as well as nearby local restaurants. The chalet was warm & comfortable with everything we needed. Pedro’s recommendations & local knowledge was really appreciated. Would love to stay again - highly recommend!

Rogerio and his home is fantastic. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The grounds and surrounding area is beautiful. Lots of trees - they harvest cork, beautiful flowers. Great bird-watching. Very easily accessible to Monsanto and nearby sight-seeing but take Rogerio's recommendations on his favorites. Great stay.

Great hosting. The apartment is very comfortable, with all the necessary equipment. Excellent location, just a few minutes walk from the historic center, markets and good restaurants (highlight the Bella Ciao pizzeria). Easy to park in front of the apartment or very close by, on the main street. The reception was excellent, the Cati was very welcoming and friendly, showed us the whole place and gave us tips about the city, as well as having left bread, butter, milk, juice and various other products available for our stay. Thank you!!! It will certainly be our choice if we return to Ciudad Rodrigo.
